Dirt Devil
Jurassic Park: The Lost World
Star Wars Trilogy Arcade

btw,I personally would love to see a arcade to console conversion of Jurassic Park: The Lost World,WaveRunner GP,Star Wars Ep I: Racer,Star Wars Trilogy Arcade,and Dirt Devils. Why SEGA haven't been on the ball about those I don't know,but theywould been awesome to have.
 
I remember getting kicked out of an arcade when I was like twelve.. I had a sore throat and a cold, so my mom kept me home from school.. only to take me with her to a local department store (her work).. of course, I wondered into the mall connected to it, went into an arcade, just started playing Killer Instinct 2, and the arcade guy made me leave. Said I was skipping school to come there. Ah well.. at least I got my revenge by shooting him in the face.. (maybe) ( :D )
 
Here's the games I would still drop quarters into:

Tempest
Budwiser Tapper
Area 51
Point Blank!
Nintendo 10-in-1 where you got timed to play NES games
Phoenix
Crazy Taxi/18 Wheeler/Jumbo Safari deluxe cabinets
Space Invaders
 
My favorite arcade games:

Mortal Kombat 1-3 (mostly 2 and 3)
San Fran Rush games

and some others like the TMNT - Turtles in Time or whatever it was called, Killer Instinct 1, and one of the best wrestling games ever.. WWF Wrestlefest (I think that's the name).
 
OutRun 2 and I haven't even played the damn game yet.
 
I put the most money into the SF2 series (SF2, SF2:CE, SF2:Turbo, etc)

Had a blast doing 4 player rounds on Saturday Night Slammasters. Oh the Great times.

I never got to play it. :(

Also a shame that the 3rd game in the series (Jet Squadron) was canceled. It was going to be on Naomi 2.
 
Robotron 2084
Tempest
Street Fighter 2
Zookeeper
Space Duel

Such lists could get very big, but those five over time were most responsible for vacuuming quarters out of my pocket.

Space Duel especially is one you don't hear about often, but was a major two-player favorite wherever it appeared. Choosing the linked ship option with the potentially out-of-control thrust mechanic made for some of the best gaming, especially if it was one of those Space Duels in a bar...
